Pungro, December 7 (MExN): The Public Forum Pungro Sub-Division has made demand for “immediate posting of a Sub-Divisional Officer (E), Pungro on or before December 30, 2016.”
Giving an account of the issue, Public Forum Pungro Sub-Division President S. Kiusumew Yimchunger and General Secretary Khiutsithong in a press release said that Pungro Area citizens received a notification from the Secretariat, Nagaland, notifying that Pungro Sub-Division was given a SDO (E) to look after the area vide Order No. PWR/ESTT-32/2010, Sl. No. 17, dated 30th November 2015 and No. PWR/ESTT-32/2010, dated 29th January 2016.
“However, to the utter dismay of the general public of Pungro Sub-Division, the order was revoked,” said the Forum.
